Mix and mingling with guests and armed only with stiff card and a pair of surgical scissors a silhouette artist creates images of your guests.

A silhouette artist works at astonishing speed - a portrait takes around 90 seconds.

Silhouettes will bring a sense of tradition and charm to your event. 

There are only a handful of Silhouette artists in the country and the art is generally associated with the Georgian and Victorian eras. If you are looking for something different and wanting to add a touch of class to your occasion a silhouette artists might well be the answer.

Silhouettes cutters are ideal entertainment for masquerade balls and Dickensian Christmas themed events.

Like the caricaturists and magicians a silhouette artist will mix and mingle - act as an ice breaker and add a sense of fun to the night.

As a finishing touch the silhouettes are normally mounted and then presented to the guests to a keep as a memento of the special occasion.
